turn in every imaginable case and
the driving stability is ensured.
After detecting the actual con-
ditions, the system adjusts the
optimum brake pressure.
How is the BMW Motorrad
Integral ABS noticeable to
the rider?
If the ABS system must reduce
the braking forces due to the
conditions described above, then
vibrations can be felt at the hand-
brake lever.
If the handbrake lever is pulled,
then braking pressure is built up
at the rear wheel with the integral
function. If the footbrake lever is
first actuated after this, the brake
pressure already built up can be
felt earlier than the counter-pres-
sure, than when the footbrake
lever is actuated before or to-
gether with the handbrake lever.
Lifting off rear wheel
However, during extremely heavy
and rapid deceleration it is possi-
ble that the BMW Motorrad Inte-
gral ABS will not prevent the rear
wheel from lifting off the ground.
In these cases, the motorcycle
can also flip end over end.
WARNING
Lifting off of the rear wheel
due to heavy braking
Accident hazard
When braking heavily, bear in
mind that the ABS control can-
not always be relied on to pre-
vent the rear wheel from lifting
off the ground.
What are the design
characteristics of the
BMW Motorrad Integral
ABS?
The BMW Motorrad Integral ABS
ensures driving stability on any
surface within the limits of driv-
ing physics. The system is not
optimized for special require-
ments resulting under extreme
weather conditions offroad or on
the racetrack. Handling should
be adopted to driving skills and
road conditions.
Special situations
To detect the tendency of the
wheels to lock up, the speeds
of the front and rear wheel are
compared. If implausible values
are detected over a longer period
of time, the ABS function is de-
activated for safety reasons and
an ABS error is indicated. A self-
diagnosis routine must be com-
